HERO T-Shirts are in and we are asking for donations to support a great cause for a fellow coach, athlete and friend! If you finished 19 WODs in July and put your size on the tracking board, you have a t-shirt waiting for you. We are asking for donations for the t-shirt your earned and from anyone else who would like to contribute to the cause “Kidney for Coach”.

Lindsay Hassell is a name we have heard and used many times. Many know Lindsay as a coach, mentor, husband, father, friend, an elite athlete, owner of Crossfit The Club, Parisi Affiliate and charitable community member, and most recently, a patient in need of a kidney transplant. Lindsay was diagnosed with IGA Nephropathy his senior year of high school. At that time, he was told that he would eventually need a kidney transplant. Lindsay’s healthy lifestyle, fitness, and nutrition have allowed him to prolong his transplant until now. Being in stage 5 kidney failure, Lindsay has risen to the occasion and humbly accepted that the life-preserving surgery can no longer be prolonged. True to faith and fate, Lindsay’s beautiful wife, Julie, has been identified as a kidney donor match. The opportunity for a spouse to donate an organ, due to compatibility, is extremely rare. With their competitive and relentless nature, Lindsay and Julie will be undergoing surgery on June 29th with their four children cheering them on through this fight.

Lindsay has positively impacted thousands of children, athletes, the Crossfit community and fellow players’ lives – Now it is our turn to positively impact his life.

All proceeds will go directly to the Hassell family for medical expenses and defray the loss of income due to recovery time. Any amount will help this great family. Thank you in advance for your love, support, and prayers during their valiant fight! All donations we receive, we will make one donation from Letrono CrossFit to his donation account. We would love to show CFTC how generous our athletes are.

Bring cash and give to your coach when you pick up your shirt or send an email with permission to charge your account for the amount you indicate. The donation will be submitted by the end of next week so get your donation in and pick up your shirt.
